PREFACE.
This book would not have been compiled but for the influence and
service of three women to whom credit is due therefor : the suggestions
of it by my mother some thirty years ago, and toward which she gath-
ered records which would be unattainable now ; the clerical aid of my
daughter Nellie ; and the present knowledge of Mrs. Sophia Wads-
worth, rich in incident and suggestion, which has furnished clues to
information essential to the fullness of the record, and otherwise irre-
coverably lost.
Books like this are not made in answer to a commercial demand, but
rather to gratify private sentiment and various personal motives of no
interest to the world at large. They are probably the unworthy fore-
runners of a class of books which may be produced in the future, when
the raising of men is made a subject of scientific study. What we lack
is knowledge of ourselves — knowledge concerning the ancestry from
whom we sprung, and of the hereditary vices, virtues and other charac-
teristics we have had imposed upon us. Every one perceives the import-
ance attached to the recorded pedigree of any domestic animal, and the
increased value which it may confer upon them, though they may not
recognize with equal clearness that human pedigrees are possibly to
become of far greater value. The history of the human race abundantly
sustains and exemplifies that law of evolution which is expressed as
"the survival of the fittest/' and the fittest people are they for whose
birth there have been combined desirable hereditary traits fitting them
for the intense competition of modern life. Every child should possess
a healthful, enduring body ; a mind capable of observing and reasoning
with ability ; and nerve force for zealous, energetic and long-continued
effort. Francis Galton says in " Hereditary Genius:" " The most illus-
trious and so called ' well bred ' families of the human race are utter
mongrels as regards their natural gifts of intellect and disposition."
"As a new race can be obtained in animals and plants, and can be raised
to so great a degree of purity that it will maintain itself, with moderate
care, in preventing the more faulty members of the flock from breeding,
so a race of gifted men might be obtained under exactly similar condi-
tions."
PREFACE.
It is believed that in their evolution human societies have passed
through a phase of social organization in which the children have taken
their names and traced their descents on their mother's side only, the
paternal lineage being ignored then even more than is the maternal one
with us. In virtue of natural laws, each child combines characteristics
of all the lineages which have been blended in its parents, and needs
must take an account of all of them, as far as possible, in learning to
know itself. Thus there is no reason, in genealogical records at least,
why a full account of both paternal and maternal lineages should not be
preserved and equally regarded. Our family names are only conven-
tional designations, serviceable for individual identification, and are but
one of many hundred names to which any one of us are naturally enti-
tled. For in each living person is an admixture of the blood of families
innumerable, being two with the parents, four with the grandparents,
and so doubling with each generation counting backward in time. The
number of ancestors becomes so large within a few centuries as to exceed
in number the present population of Europe. While intermarriages
have lessened the apparent number of them, even this circumstance does
not remove very far back the date when the total population of the coun-
try to which we trace our origin must be included among our ancestors,
and thus in a literal sense, rather than in a sentimental one, " every man
is my brother."
While special effort has been made to secure accuracy of record in the
text of this book, it is foreseen that many errors will be discovered in it.
All that can be done to remedy such errors is to take an account of them
and also of omissions and misapprehensions of statement other than
those of records, any of which should be reported to the compiler, within
the present year, addressed to 81 Fulton street, New York City. They
will be properly written up in an interleaved copy of the book which
will be deposited in the library of the New England Historical Genea-
logical Society, Boston, Mass., for the benefit of genealogists. Possi-
bly these corrections may be embodied in a printed circular for distribu-
tion to all possessors of the book.

. In this book each person of the lineage is assigned a
number which is nowhere duplicated. The numbers com-
prise, first, a figure that designates the American born
generation to which the person belongs, and second, their
number within that generation. Each family paragraph
has for its title the number in the lineage of that parent
who belongs to the Torrey family, and such paragraphs
are in numerical order. The lineage numbers are the
index for all cross references.

FAMILIES
OF
THE TORREY ANCESTRY.
Note. — The pioneers of the Torrey family in America were four
brothers, William, James, Philip and Joseph, sons of Philip Torrey, of
Somerset County, England. Researches made in England by Mr. H. A.
Newton, of North Weymouth, Mass., secured the information con-
tained herein of the English ancestry, and much of that relating to the
families between that of Lieut. James Torrey and Abner Torrey has
also been kindly furnished by him.
1
William Torrey (1), of Combe St. Nicholas,
in the County of Somerset, England, who died in
June, 1557, leaving a will, in which he mentions
Thomasyne, his wife, and "every of his children,"
without naming them.
2
Philip Torrey (2), son of the above William,
and Margaret, his wife. His will is dated in 1604 ;
mentions his son William, and daughter Dorothie ;
also his wife Margaret.
3
William Torrey (3), son of Philip (No. 2), and
Jane, his wife. His wife died in 1639, at which date
he was still living. The date of his death is not
found. His son Philip had previously died.
6
4
Philip Torrey (4), son of William (No. 3), and
Alice, his wife. He died in June, 1621, leaving a
will dated 21 of April, 1621, in which he mentions
three daughters: Anne, Mary, and Sarah, and four
sons: William (5), James (6), Philip (7), and Joseph
(8). (The will of the wife Alice is dated 1634, and
mentions by name the same seven children, and states
that the daughter Mary was deceased )
These four sons all emigrated to America in 1640-
1643, and located within a few miles of Boston, Mass.,
and seem to have been the ancestors of all the early
families of the name in America. William (5), and
Joseph (8), first located in Weymouth, James (6), in
Scituate, and Philip (7), in Roxbury.
5
William Torrey (5), of Weymouth, Mass.,
son of Philip (No. 4), usually designated as " Captain
William Torrey," was born in Combe St. Nicholas,
Somersetshire, England, in 1608. The church records
show that he was baptized on 21 December of that
year.
On 17th March, 1629, he was married to Agnes
Combe, of Combe St. Nicholas. She died before he
left England, and he was appointed administrator of
her estate. In 1640 he came to America, bringing
with him two sons, Samuel, born in 1632, and Wil-
liam, born in 1638, and settled in Weymouth, which
was thereafter his home. It is believed that he
brought his second wife with him from England. Six
children were born to him in Weymouth, as below :
1-1. Samuel, born in England, 1632.
1-2. William, born in England, 1638.
7
1-3. Naomi, born in Weymouth, December 3, 1641.
1-4. Mary, born in Weymouth, December 3, 1642.
1-5. Micajah, born in Weymouth, October 12, 1643.
1-6. Josiah, born in Weymouth.
1-7. Judith, born in Weymouth.
1-8. Angel, born in Weymouth.
Besides which he took two small children of his
brother James, after their father's death, and brought
them up with his family, viz., Jonathan and Mary,
both of whom are in some of the records of early his-
tory erroneously referred to as his own children. He
died in Weymouth, June 10, 1690.
William Torrey (from Johnson's Universal Cyclopedia), settled at
Weymouth, where he became a magistrate and captain of the trainband
of the colony: was many years representative for Weymouth in the Gen-
eral Court, of which, as he wrote a good hand, he was usually clerk or
secretary, and was a member of its committees whenever they had to do
with education or literature, as in the case of that appointed to examine
Eliot's Indian Bible. He wrote a work on the millenium entitled "A
Discourse Concerning Futurities, etc.," first printed by Rev. Dr. Prince,
in 1757, with a biographical notice.
6
Lieut. James Torrey (6), of Scituate, Mass.,
married Ann, daughter of Elder Wm. Hatch, Nov. 2,
1643. He died July 6, 1665, from injuries received
from an accidental explosion of gunpowder. (Was
she the Ann Torrey that married John Phillips, in
Marshfield, April 3, 1677?) Their children were, as
printed in "Davis's Landmarks of Plymouth":
1-11. James, born September 3, 1644.
1-12. William, born March 15, 1647 ; probably died
young.
1-13. Joseph, born March 18, 1649.
1-14. Damaris, born October 26, 1651.
8
1-15. Jonathan, born September 20, 16o4 ; ancestor
of Abner Torrey.
1-16. Mary, born February 14, 1657 ; married Josiah
Blood, of Concord, Mass., February 3, 1690, and had
eleven children; see "Potter's Old Families of Con-
cord."
1-17. Josiah, born 1658.
1-18. Sarah, born February 9, 1661.
1-19. Joanna, born May 4, 1663.
1-20. Bethia, born 1665.
Lieut. James Torrey (6), according to Plymouth Colony Records,
came from England previous to 1643, as he was married in that year.
June 8, 1655, he was made lieutenant for Scituate by the court, being
sworn and admitted a freeman at the same meeting of it, and was made
deputy magistrate by the court June 3, 1656. He was frequently
engaged in business for the colony up to the time of his death, 1665,
after which the court gave for the benefit of his four younger sons two
hundred acres of land.
The following extract from- the records is interest-
ing.
At a session of the General Court of Plymouth Col-
ony held September 27, 1664, the following order is
recorded :
' ' Lief tenant James Torrey is authorized by the court to make con-
tractes of marriage in the towne of Scittuate, and likewise to admin-
nester an oath to giue euidence to the grand enquest, and likewise to
adminnester an oath to any witnesses for the tryall of a case as occation
may require ; and incase any pson resideing within this jurisdiction
shall have occation to commence a suite against any Stranger or for-
raigner, it shallbee then lawfull for the said Lieftenant Torrey to issue
out warrants in his maties name to bind ouer any pson or psons to
ensware the said suite att the Court of His Matie to bee holden att Ply-
mouth att any time by attachment or sumons as occation shall require,
and likewise to graunt subpenaes as occation may require."
An account of the accident by which Lieut. Torrey
lost his life was found in the records of the first church
of Roxbury, Mass., made by Rev. Samuel Danforth,
9
and published in the N. Eng. Hist, and G-eneal. Regis-
ter, page 163, Vol. 34, 1880, which reads as follows :
"July 5th. There happened a uery sad accident at Scituate, lieft.
Torrey having rec'd orders fro the Gouernor of Plymouth (by reason of
the King's letter yt informes of ye Hollanders coming ag'st vs) to look to
ye powder & ammunition of ye Town. He went into ye house of
Goodma Tickner where ye Magazine of ye Town was, wch was but two
barrels of powder & opened ym & while ye said lieftenant was drying
some of ye powder abroad upon boards & dooers by some accident, G.
knows what ye powder was fired both that in ye house and that abroad,
& ye house blown & broken in piece3, * * * ye lieftenant
was sadly burnt esp'ly on his breast, face, hands & armes, yet he lived
till ye next day & then dyed."
7
Philip Torrey (7), of Roxbury, born 1615, came
from England with William Torrey, and from the
same place. Was admitted freeman May 29, 1644.
Married October 1st, 1647, Mary, widow of John Scar-
borough. Had children :
1-21. Joseph, born July 2, 1649.
1-22. Jonathan, born June 16, 1651.
1-23. Mary, born April 2, 1654.
In March, 1674, he, aged fifty-nine years, testified that he came with
William and his son Samuel to New England from Combe St. Nicholas,
in Somerset, "there living until the year 1640 (yeoman), in that year
removing to New England;" that he knew them before and ever since,
and George Fry united in the same testimony. He died in Roxbury
May 12, 1686.
8
Joseph Torrey (8), of Rehoboth, in 1643 (from
Savage's Genealogical Dictionary) "went to Newport
in 1654, or earlier. Was on the Freeman's list 1655."
Died 1676. Had one daughter who married and had
children.
1-24. Name unknown.
" With an associate met Denison and Danvers, Massachusetts commis-
sioners 1664, at Rehoboth, about some question of jurisdiction ; was a
10
lieutenant, and in 1670 sent with John Green and others as commission-
ers to adjust bounds with Connecticut, ruling elder of the church of John
Clark at the time of his death, 1676. Perhaps he married a daughter,
who may have been the eldest of that John Green, as by the genealogies
I have seen."
(From Plymouth Colony Records): Joseph Torrey admitted freeman
June 7th, 1648 ; was on the jury-grand inquest the same year. Was
under bonds to keep the peace in 1646 or-7, and in 1649 and 1650, in the
sum of ten pounds, and was with his wife and others presented to the
court for meeting at their houses on the Lord's day.
Joseph Torrey was prominent in the affairs of the Providence and
Newport settlements. He was a representative from Newport in 1656,
and, with few exceptions, every year thereafter up to 1674. He was
Secretary of the Colony seven years, Colonial Attorney 1671-2. He died
in 1676. Concerning his family little is known. Austin's Genealogical
Dictionary of Rhode Island prints an extract from a letter from Samuel
Hubbard, of Newport, dated November 29, 1676, concerning him, as
follows: " Having but one daughter, living at Squamicut * * * he
sent a boat so as his wife, his daughter, and his son-in-law and all their
children * * * all came."
1-15
Jonathan Torrey (1-15 from 6) went to Wey-
mouth, probably to live with his uncle William, who
was his guardian. He married Ruth, daughter of
George Fry. He died at Weymouth, June 7, 1718.
She died April 28, 1724, in her 74th year. Their chil-
dren, all born in Weymouth, were :
2-1. Maky, born September 25, 1676 ; married,
Norton.
2-2. Ruth, born August 17, 1679 ; married, Allen.
2-3. Ann, born March 3, 1682 ; married, Butler.
2-4. Jonathan, born May 25, 1684.
2-5. Sarah, married, first, Saml. King, second,
Ebenezer Hovey.
2-6. Joshua, born November 1, 1690.
Jonathan Torrey (1-15) is given by Savage as a son
of William Torrey (5), the error arising from the rela-
11
tion of guardian and of being a member of his family.
Either he or Jonathan (1-22) was a soldier in the King
Philip War, and was reported as "in garrison at Men-
don," in 1675.
2-4=
Jonathan Torrey (2-4 from 1-15), born May
25, 1684, in Weymouth, who in early life left his home
in the north part of the town and went to the south
part or South Parrish, as it was then called, adjoining
Abington. The name of his first wife was Margaret,
but I have no further account of her. She had but
one child :
3-1. Jonathan, who was born October 2, 1711.
Jonathan (2-4) married a second wife, Lydia Green,
August 9, 1712, and by her had :
3-2. Margaret, born June 18, 1713. (d. July 29,
1738). m. Wm. Holbrook, February 20, 1734.
3-3. David, born January 4, 1717 ; ancestor of a
large family now living at South Weymouth.
3-4. Adam, born February 4, 1723.
3-1
Jonathan Torrey (3-1 from 2-4), born October
2, 1711, in Weymouth, died April 9, 1784, married
December 18, 1735, Deborah Shaw, of Abington, by
whom he had only one child :
4-1. Abner, born at Weymouth, December 12,
1736.
The mother died December 16, 1736, and the father
married Sarah Smallpiece, December 8, 1737, by whom
he had, as given in u Davis's Landmarks of Ply-
mouth," the following children :
4-2. Sarah, born May 2, 1738.
4-3. Deborah, born October 16, 1739,
12
4-4. Jonathan, born September 28, 1741.
4-5. Ruth, born September 18, 1743.
4-6. Margaret, born xipril 7, 1746.
4-7. Olive, born July 17, 1748.
4-8. Molly, born November 13, 1750.
4-9. Elizabeth, born May 20, 1752.
4-10. Jane, born September 2, 1754.
4-1
Aimer Torrey (4-1 from 3-1), a carpenter and
farmer, born December 12, 1736, in Weymouth, Mass.,
and died, probably in 1826, in Hamilton, N. Y. He
married, March 9, 1758, in Abington, Mass., Lydia
Beal, of Weymouth, born August 26, 1738, died
August 25, 1806, in Plainfield, Mass., daughter of
William and Hannah (Smith) Beal, of Weymouth.
Their children, all born in Abington, Mass., were :
5-1. Jonathan Torrey, born December 28, 1758.
5-2. Hannah Torrey, born December 30, 1759.
5-3. Elias Torrey, born April 20, 1764.
5-4. Abner Torrey, born probably in 1767.
5-5. Barney Torrey, born January 10, 1771.
5-6. Molly Torrey, date of birth unknown.
5-7. Betsey Torrey, born probably in 1777.
5-8 William Torrey, born December 28, 1778.
5-9 Olive Torrey, born probably in 1783.
Abner Torrey participated as a humble citizen in those events which,
possibly, beyond all others, have determined the great and successful
career of the United States of America, such as the ' ' French and Indian
War" of 1756 to 1760, which secured nearly all of North America for the
English speaking people, and the evolution of English institutions ; and
in the "War of Independence," of 1775 to 1783. After the war last
referred to, Abner Torrey left the seaboard, where four generations of
his ancestors slept, and joined in the great work of redeeming a wilder-
ness and making a country. In 1785, the year after the death of his
father, he moved with his family to the town of Cummington and Plain-
13
field, Hampshire County, Mass. Some idea of the wilderness of the sec-
tion may be inferred from an incident, the memory of which survives in
the minds of his grandchildren. It was the stealing of his pigs from the
pen by bears living in the surrounding forests. Cummington and the
neighboring towns were settled largely by people from Abington and
adjoining towns, and the intermarriages of the succeeding generation (the
fifth in this genealogy) was by members of the same families, as had
been the case before the migration began. In the case of Abner Torrey,
he had been preceded in moving to Cummington by his son Jonathan,
whose children were all born in the then wilderness (see 5-1). In 1804,
Elijah Nash, whose wife was Betsey Torrey (5-7), moved to Central New
York, and made his farm and home in the town of Hamilton, Madison
County, New York. Several families of the Torrey connection, of both
fifth and sixth generations, soon followed. After Lydia (Beal) Torrey
died, in 1806, Abner Torrey lived first with his son William (5-8), but he
dying in 1807, the arrangement was broken up, and Abner lived with his
son, Dr. Barney Torrey, until in 1817, when he was taken to Hamilton,
N. Y., where he lived the remainder of his days with his son Jonathan,
and near to his daughter Betsey. He died probably in 1826 or 1827, and
was buried in the Poolville graveyard.
He sang agreeably to his acquaintances, and knew many songs of army
life and events. A granddaughter, now living, remembers calling on the
neighbors with him, and sitting in his lap while he sang his army songs.
Another recalls the circumstance of his religious feeling, and that he was
constantly absorbed in prayer while at work in the fields or elsewhere.
He was, as were his sons, inclined to mechanical occupations, perform-
ing such carpenter work as his neighbors needed, making wooden-ware,
etc. Probably always in the possession of a little shop, a small farm,
and living the simple life and ways of all those about him. If our polit-
ical institutions endure, it will be because of the simple life led by the
generation to which our subject belonged, as well as by many of their
descendants.
At the time of compiling this record, but little is known of the record
of Abner Torrey's military life. When fuller publication has been made
of town and State archives in Massachusetts, and those in possession
of the National Government at Washington, further and more specific
information can be gathered. Military ardor burned in the breasts of all
men in Abington (as elsewhere in Massachusetts), not only at the time of
the " French and Indian War," but also in the time of the " Revolution-
ary War." Family tradition, gathered from his children and grandchil-
dren, who knew and associated with him, establish the fact that he was
in the armies of both wars. (See the Appendix relative to military rec-

ords.) Tradition indicates that he was in an expedition against Quebec
either in 1758 or 1775-6. He was probably in the siege of Boston,
and also probably with General Lincoln in the operations against Bur-
goyne, in 1777. One tradition concerns a movement up the Mohawk
River, possibly that of 1755, and another of his being a prisoner at New
York, wherein he fared better than others, as he served as cook, and thus
escaped many hardships. If his family ever had any records they were
lost a long time ago, and no one thought of writing out his recounts of
his army life, which were, it is said, so often the subject of his conversa-
tions.

Jonathan Torrey (5-1 from 4-1), a carpenter
and farmer, born December 28, 1758, in Abington,
Mass., died June 14, 1837, in Hamilton, N. Y. Married,
June 16, 1779, probably in Abington, Abigail Stowell,
born, probably, in 1755, in Abington, died September
14, 1843, in Hamilton, N. Y., sister of the Caleb
Stowell named in 5-6. Their children, all born in or
near Plainfield, Mass., were :
6-1. Jonathan Torrey, born August 18, 1781.
6-2. Elias Torre r, born February "5, 1783.
6-3. Hannah Torrey, born in 1784.
6-4. Lydia Torrey, born August 18, 1785.
6-5. Abner Torrey.
6-6. Amos Torrey.
6-7. Daniel Torrey.
6-8. Eleanor Torrey.
These four children died young, and the dates of their birth and
death are undetermined at this time.
The compiler has been unable to learn the date at which Jonathan
Torrey moved to Hampshire County, Mass. He left there probably in
1808 with his son Elias and their families, moving to Hamilton, Mad-
ison County, N. Y. He followed a mixed occupation of carpentering,
making wooden ware and farming. As a Revolutionary pensioner,
good natured, genial and social, with the then customary fondness for
hard cider and toddy, he was well known and liked by all who knew
him. Both were buried in private ground on the Hosea Thayer farm.

Jonathan Torrey enlisted in Abington, Mass., January 1, 1776, for
twelve months under Capt. Wm. Reed, in the Massachusetts regiment
commanded by Col. John Bailey, and was in the battle at White Plains,
October 28, 1776, and discharged at Peekskill, N. Y. What other mil-
itary service he may have seen is not known specifically at this writing.
The reader is referred to the Appendix relative to military records.
Note.— The first pension act (1818) was for nine months in Continen-
tal line, and applicants usually specified only that service which covered
the required nine months. Shorter periods were State troops and militia.
At siege of Boston no service was over eight months in one enlistment ;
all discharged in December, 1775, that enlisted early.

Hannah Torrey (5-2 from 4-1), born December
BO, 1759, in Abington, where she married Joseph
Vining, and where she passed her days. No specific
information concerning her has been ascertained, far-
ther than the name of the man she married, and that
they had no children. All tradition agree in these
statements.

Elias Torrey (5-3 from 4-1), born April 10, 1764,
in Abington, Mass. He moved to Charleston, S. C,
where he was a harbor pilot, and was drowned in
1792, when the pilot boat and all on board was lost.
He married, about 1785, Mary Toussiger, born Decem-
ber 24, 1769, died May 24, 1828, daughter of James
Toussiger (a Huguenot) and Elizabeth Lambeth, of
England. He left her a widow with three children, all
born in Charleston, S. C, as follows :
6-9. Ezekiel Torrey, born in 1786, died 1821. He
was first married to Miss Ann Louis, who soon died,
childless. He married, second, Miss Eliza Clarkson,
who survived him. They had one son, Clarkson Tor-
rey (7-21), born in 1815, died 1840, unmarried.

6-10. Elias Torrey, born July 18, 1788, died August
13, 1821, unmarried.
6-11. Elizabeth Olive Torrey, born November 28,

ton, Capt. Frederick Burrows, a harbor pilot, by whom she had several
children, and from one, a daughter, the above record was obtained in
1890.

Aimer Torrey (5-4 from 4-1), a quarry operator,
born about 1767 in Abington, Mass., died May 1,
1809, in Quincy, Mass., "aged 42 years." Married
Susannah Hobart, who died January 11, 1849, in
Quincy, Mass., " aged 73 years." Their children, the
first two born in Dorchester, Solomon in Spectacle
Island, and all the others in Quincy, Mass., were :
6-12. Abner Torrey, born May 12, 1794.
6-13. Joshua Torrey, born November 19, 1795.
6-14. William Torrey, born May 19, 1797.
6-15. Susannah Torrey, born April 30, 1798.
6-16. Nancy Torrey, born May 20, 1799.
6-17. Solomon Torrey, born May 27, 1800.
6-18. Elias Torrey, born September 6, 1801.
6-19. Adeline Torrey, born November 7, 1802.
6-20. Irene Torrey, born December 23, 1804.
6-21. Sarah Eliza Torrey, born July 24, 1808,
died July 16, 1809.
The circumstance of Abner Torrey's death, before any of his children
were old enough to have any interest in his family history, and the fact
that all of his immediate relatives had left that section of the country
nearly ten years before his marriage, while he was but a young man, and
the further circumstance that all these children were dead before these
genealogical inquiries were started, made the compiler work under great
difficulty in solving the problems. It is understood that no member of
the Quincy family knew anything of its lineage back of Abner Torrey
(5-4). While no person of the connection in the West, now living, has
17
visited the Quincy branch of the family in the maintenance of family
acquaintance, there are those who know, as a matter of family discus-
sion, that their parents and brothers and sisters did make in former years
just such visits. The memory of these visits, and the recitation of a
multiplicity of circumstances connected therewith, leave no doubt in the
mind of the compiler that Abner (5-4) was a son of Abner (4-1). Sev-
eral desirable dates of family events and the parentage of the wife Susan-
nah are yet undetermined, not from any insurmountable difficulty, but
from apathy of those who should be most interested in trying to deter-
mine them. However, the identification now made is all that could be
had in any case short of documentary proof, which could be found, no
doubt, if the importance of the case required it.
His early death, leaving a widow with nine children, the eldest but
fourteen years old, imposed a burthen upon her which any one might
shrink from accepting. She met the issue bravely. Her sons became
active business men, some of them acquiring large fortunes ; her daugh-
ters made good marriage alliances, and her descendants are numerous,
have honorable records, and are reasonably prosperous.

Barney Torrey (5-5 from 4-1) was born in
Abington, Mass,, June 10, 1771, and died April 8, 1837,
in Poolville, Madison County, N. Y. He married,
June 27, 1795, Lucy Cunningham, the only daughter
of Capt. John Cunningham, of Spencer, Mass. She
was born in Spencer, June 11, 1775, and died June 11,
1854, in Welshfield, Geauga Co., 0. He was a physi-
cian, and prominent in public matters. They moved
to Hamilton, N. Y., in 1829. Their children, all born

Dr. Barney Torrey was fourteen years old when brought with his
father's family from Abington to Plainfield, Mass. He was a person of
superior abilities. He studied medicine with the physician of the town,
Dr. Bond, and located for practice in the town of Marlborough, Vt. In
a short time Dr. Bond gave up practicing in Plainfield, and a formal
written petition was signed by the prominent inhabitants of that place,
asking Dr. Torrey to settle with them, which he did, probably in 1797.
For several years he was the only physician in Plainfield.
He was very religious in feelings, and pure minded in thought, and
had a vein of poetic appreciation in his make up that was sometimes
voiced in written verse. He used to lead the singing in the church.
Kind hearted, charitable, and ever ready to yield his own right, rather
than to oppress others ; he never sued anyone. While Plainfield was on
a well traveled stage route Dr. Torrey, who was prominent in many
public affairs, was interested in stage lines, hotels, etc , and was always
ready to join in advancing any matter of public enterprise that might
come up. About 1829, he moved to Poolville, N. Y., and died in 1837.
After the death of Dr. Barney Torrey, his widow moved to Geauga
County, Ohio, where she lived the remainder of her life with her son
Barney and daughter Harriet, neither of whom ever married. Her
father, Capt. John Cunningham, was a captain in the Revolutionary
Army, of Scotch-Irish descent. His wife was a Thomson, from Lon-
donderry, N. H. Her ancestors were Scotch Covenanters that fled to
Ireland to secure religious freedom.

6-35. Diania Stowell, born May 4, 1812.
Caleb Stowell, who married for his second wife Molly Torrey, was a
brother of Abigail Stowell, who married Jonathan Torrey (5-1), and a
brother of David Stowell, the father of Mehitable and Wm. J. Stowell
(see 5-8, 6-47, 7-13 and 7-15). He was married three times, but had
no children by his third wife, who was, it is said, a widow Torrey, and
that they were married in Lebanon, N. Y. By his first wife, his children
were as follows :
Bakney Stowell, born March 2, 1790.
Polly Stowell, born September 14, 1791 (unmarried).

6-43. Commodore Perry Nash, born April 27, 1812.
20
6-44. Betsey Nash, born March 2, 1815.
Elijah Nash came, as stated, from Plainfield, and was descended, it is
believed, from a family of that name, which was a numerous one in the
towns of Plymouth and Norfolk Counties. Any one sufficiently inter-
ested could trace the lineage back several generations beyond doubt.
Elijah Nash had several brothers. One, Jacob, remained in Plainfield.
Zenas and Thomas moved, it is said, to Hamilton, and a sister Sally is
named in 6-24.

Jeremiah Stockwell, who married Lydia Torrey, received only such
an education as the common schools of Plainfield furnished at that early
day ; yet he was a person of remarkable natural ability, which was
greatly improved by extensive reading. He formed his opinions with
great care and deliberation, and when once formed he held to them with
the utmost tenacity ; and it has been truthfully said of him that he never,
in the slightest degree, changed his religious or political convictions. In
his religious belief he Was a Baptist of the strictest sect, and strongly
devoted to his church and its principles through life. He was mainly
instrumental in the foundation of a Baptist Church in Plainfield, and so
24
long as he remained in that place was its chief support, financially and
otherwise. The church being unable to support a minister more than
half of the time, he, for a period of over thirty years, occupied the pul-
pit, and conducted religious services on alternate Sabbaths, to the entire
satisfaction of the church and congregation.

Harriet Newell Torrey (6-30 from 5-5), was
born iu Plainfield, Hampshire County, Mass., Febru-
ary 23, 1816, and died June 23, 1883, at Oregon, 111.
She was named after Harriet Newell, a missionary to India, who had
died young in years, and whose biography and letters were widely read
at the time, and exercised great influence in religious circles. Harriet
N. Torrey was never married. She lived with her father during girl-
hood, moved with him in 1829 to Poolville, N". Y., and attended him
during his fatal sickness, which ended in 1837. When about 21 years
of age she, with her mother and brother Barney, moved to Geauga
County, O. They made a family which continued until June, 1854,
when her mother died. Soon afterwards she went to Oregon, 111 , and
from that time until her death, in 1883, lived there with her sister, Mrs.
Sophia Wadsworth.
She was religious in feeling rather than in protestation and display, and
had deep felt sympathies for the suffering and down-trodden, whoever
and wherever they might be. She was a lover of nature, and held com-
munion with its visible forms, in flowers, fields and forests. She had a
broad and vigorous mind, which reached its conclusions by deductive
processes, which she expressed bravely and regardless of consequences,
as is the case with capable people. She received a physical injury while
young, from which she suffered greatly, and which restricted the devel-
34
op merit and manifestation of her powers. She was a Garrisonian aboli-
tionist, when the distinction was one that many wise and able people
shrunk from acknowledging. Under the hard restrictions which her
bad health compelled, she occasionally lectured from the public stand in
her home neighborhood, and corresponded with newspapers in advocacy
of her proposed reforms and her social or political theories. She also
gave expression to her sentiments in verse, which she published in cur-
rent newspapers, and which frequently were widely copied in other
papers. She studied medicine, a profession for which she had aptness,
but her health did not allow her to practice it.

The widow of Henry (Jackson) Torrey married sec-
ond, March 15, 1860, in Hamilton, N. Y., Col. Elijah
Staples, by whom she had no children.
Henry Torrey (7-5)— he never used his middle name, "Jackson"—
was a machinist, and carried on that business at various places in cen-
tral New York. * He learned first the trade of wagonmaking, but as it
did not give scope for his mechanical tastes, he determined some years
45
after marriage to change his occupation, which he did, and became a
" finisher," and always possessed his own machine shop, which was of a
size to require the services of four or five men, and in which he
made machinery for woolen mills, and mills of such other kinds as in
those days were scattered throughout the country. He was temperate
in his habits, with a sanguine or optimistic temperament, simple in his
tastes, a man of integrity, and well liked by his associates. He died
leaving his widow without means of support, and with a family of six
children. From necessity the family was scattered, the children found
each their line in life, and all of them maintained honorable conduct
and secured reasonable prosperity.
Concerning the parentage of Julia Webster, it is known as a tradition
of her father's family that he was descended from one of the earliest col-
onists of Hartford, a Lieutenant Governor of that colony. John Web-
ster, born April 28, 1778, in Glassonburg, (?) Conn., and Thankful Rob-
bards, of East Hartford, Conn., born April 7, 1773, were married April
13, 1800, and soon moved into the wilderness of Hamilton, Madison
County, N. Y., where they had a large family of children, and where
they passed their lives. John Webster was a son of a John Webster,
who died October 1, 1781, and who in turn was the son of a Jonathan
Webster.
Julia Webster was born to a life of hardship and trouble, the duties
and trials of which she met bravely, and was ever ready, prompted by
very warm sympathies, to give every service in her power to aid others
in their troubles and afflictions. Her education was such as the schools
in early pioneer settlements afforded, which she improved in after life as
her opportunities permitted, and she saw clearly the advantages of the
advanced educational privileges of more recent times which she desired
for her children.

Concerning Hon. Charles Upson, the following account is condensed
from a biographical article by Hon. Thomas M. Cooley, in Volume 9,
Michigan Pioneer Collection : Hon. Charles Upson was one of the lead-
ing and most influential citizens of the State of Michigan. He was the
son of a farmer, and early in life spent his summers on his father's farm,
and first attending and afterwards teaching school during the winters.
He was a diligent student, and secured a good practical education,
which fitted him for the varied and useful public career which he after-
wards found. He removed to Michigan in 1845, and was admitted to
the bar in 1847, and was in some useful and honorable public office dur-
ing the remainder of his life. He was deputy county clerk, county
clerk, prosecuting attorney, State senator, railroad commissioner, circuit
judge, representative in congress, and a member of several important
commissions. In none of the positions filled by him did he disappoint
public expectations, either in respect to the ability which he brought to
the discharge of his duties, or the fidelity with which he performed
them.
" In no conventional sense, but in heart, in principle, and in conduct,
Charles Upson was a good lawyer, a useful citizen, a kind husband and
father, a man of sterling integrity and of benevolent disposition. He
was, therefore, a thoroughly good man." After his death his widow
married (2d) Jacob Franklin Pratt, September 17, 1888, in Coldwater,
where both reside March 1890. He was son of John and Lemey (Qillott)
Pratt, Courtland County, N. Y.

D. Torrey's school privileges were only those of a country public
school, until after his father's death (when he was 15 years old). He
had a taste for reading, which kept a book in his hand whenever pos-
sible, and for which he was much indebted to his mother's advice and
encouragement. He attended the academy (Gilbertsville, K. Y.) a few
months, and then bound himself as an apprentice and learned the trade
of molder in an iron foundry. In 1851 he " did chores " for his board
and attended the academy for one year. He then followed his trade,
living one year at Lawrenceville, Tioga County, Pa., and in the spring
of 1854 removed west, locating at Davenport, Iowa. The following
year he was employed in the passenger department of the Pennsylvania
railroad.
In 1861 he abandoned his business and enlisted as a private soldier in
Co. A, 2d Ohio Vol. Inf. "three months men," and was in the first
battle of Bull Run. He then traveled during one year for the railroad
company, seeing much of the war operations in the "border States,"
and in July, 1862, was commissioned as second lieutenant and recruiting
officer, and recruited a company in Davenport, Iowa He was commis-
sioned captain of his company, which became Co. D, 20th Iowa Inf.
Their first campaign was in the "Army of the Frontier, " through south-
west Missouri and northwestern Arkansas, extending from August to
94
May, during which time they marched over 1,000 miles, were in some
skirmishes, fought the battle of Prairie Grove, and captured the town
of Van Buren, on the Arkansas river. In June the command (that of
Gen. F. J. Herron) joined the investing force in front of Vicksburg, and
was at the extreme left of the Union line. Here Capt. Torrey was
picket officer, and under constant fire for weeks, until the surrender.
His exposure nearly cost him his life, for he was stricken with typho-
malarial fever. After leaving the hospital in November he joined his
company at Brazos, Santiago, Texas, and was at the capture of Mus-
tang Island. He was appointed acting commissary for the expedition
(Bank's Texas coast expedition), and was captured a prisoner of war
December 14, 1862. He was held at Houston, Texas, and at Camp
Ford Tyler, Texas, until exchanged at the mouth of Eed River, July
22, 1863. He was at the capture of Fort Morgan, Mobile Bay. He
resigned January 30, 1864, at New Orleans.
Capt. Torrey engaged with the Pennsylvania Railroad after leaving
the army, and was soon called to a position in the office of the general
passenger agent, where he continued until the end of 1868, when he was
assigned to the superintendency of the company operating the sleeping
cars over the Pennsylvania and connecting roads. He organized many
of the lines of through cars between New York and St. Louis, Louis-
ville, Cincinnati and Chicago, and continued in the position until 1875,
when he was appointed "chief of the Bureau of Transportation" of the
United States Centennial Commission. He originated and carried out a
plan for the receipt of merchandise at the Exhibition, which has not
been surpassed at any such exhibition. At the date of this publication
he is with the Warren-Scharf Asphalt Paving Company, 81 Fulton
street, New York.

POSTSCRIPT.
Circumstances compelled the printing of the earlier pages of this book
while the other part was in preparation. All corrections, delayed infor-
mation, and more recently acquired records are printed in this postscript
arranged in paragraphs by numbers as in the preceding pages.
As many families have not kept current records of the names of chil-
dreu, of births, marriages and deaths, it occurs that when different mem-
bers of one of them attempts to furnish a family record for a book of this
kind, they disagree, more or less, in the various details, particularly of
dates. The compiler has acted upon the assumption that a correspond-
ent knows better than anyone else his own name, and the dates of his
birth, etc. The records of existing families have, in nearly every
instance, been submitted to the head of the family in the form of a
printed proof for final revision and correction. Hence, in case of a dis-
crepancy between the paragraphs of such a family, and the entries con-
cerning the heads of it in the paragraph of their parent's family, the
youngest is believed to be most reliable.

In "Davis' Ancient Landmarks of Plymouth" is found the state-
ment that "the first clothing mill in Plymouth Colony was erected
in 1043, by James Torrey, on the first herring brook in Scituate."
The text to the effect that William 1-12, probably died young must
be an error, if Davis' is correct in stating that William, the son of the
first James, removed to Plymouth, and had a son Haviland, but he may
have referred to 1-11 as the first James. The third son of James is given
as Josiah, by Davis.

The maiden name of the wife of Philip 7, was Mary Smith (Savage).
Jonathan 1-22, had a son Philip, who married April 25, 1715, Mary
(Story) Youngman, widow of Cornelius Youngman. (N. E. Reg., 1881,
pp. 46, 47.)

The place called Squamicut in the text, is now Westerly, R. I.

The text is in error in giving the reference to " Davis' Landmarks
of Plymouth." The list of children is adopted from another source,
the record of which is mislaid.
It will be noticed that the list includes the names of but two sons,
Abner, whose descendants are traced in this book, and Jonathan, who, it
is believed, died while in military service against the French in Nova
Scotia. If this assumption is correct, the Torreys most closely related
to Abner 's descendants will be descendants of David and Adam, named
in 2-4. Sarah probably married Peter, son of Peter and Mary (Noyes)
Nash (Hooart). Ruth may have married John Chapman of Hanover
{Barry).
4-1
The date of Abner's removal to Hamilton, is determined by the
recollection of two living grandchildren, and the date of his death by
the statements of two other grandchildren. The date of his removal to
Plainfield, is determined by a statement of Dr. Barney Torrey, that he
was fourteen years old when it took place.
Dear Cousin: Oregon, III., December 21, 1889.
I was six years old when grandfather Torrey went to make his home
with uncle Jonathan, in Hamilton. After the death of grandmother
Lydia Torrey, he had lived on his own farm with uncle "William until
uncle William died, after which event grandfather came to my father's
and lived with us until taken to live with uncle Jonathan.
I remember grandfather well, and I had a great liking for him.
Always when it was pleasant, he took me with him to call on the neigh-
bors, and they always asked him to sing, for he had a musical voice.
What I remember of his war experiences I have heard father and mother
tell or talk over before me so many times that it must be so. Grandfather
was taken prisoner and confined in what was called the " Old Hulk," in
New York harbor. A great many died there, but he was a good cook, so
they kept him employed at that, and of course he had enough to eat, while
many prisoners starved. When he was let loose he walked to his home
near Boston The first night out he stayed with some old people. He
was covered with body lice. Well, they heated their old fashioned brick
oven, and had him take off his clothes, and they baked them, fixed him
up generally, and started him on in good trim At another time, prob-
ably before that, he went up the Mohawk river in batteaux to Fort
Sumwix, now Rome, Oneida County, N. Y. Whether they had a battle,
or how long they stayed, I cannot tell ; neither can I tell what generals
he was under. I always understood that both he and uncle Jonathan
were out all through the Revolutionary War.

In 1860, Elias Torrey (6-2), stated in answer to questions by the
compiler, "My father had a son Abner, who died when 18 years old;
a son Daniel, who died 15 or 16 years old, and a son Amos, who died
also when 15 or 16 years old, these ages being as stated, more or less."
The town records of Plainfleld, Mass., record the deaths of children of
Jonathan and Abigail Torrey. Eleanor died September 28 ; Abner,
October 2, and Daniel, November 14, all in 1808. These deaths were
from typhoid fever. It is a family tradition that Jonathan and his father
were out all through the revolutionary war.

Dear Cousin: Oregon, III., January 15, 1890.
You ask what I know about the Quincy Torreys. I have often in
childhood heard both father and mother talk about their going to Quincy,
and about the relatives there. Mother went there before I was born.
I often heard her talk of it. I gained an idea of its situation on a small
stream in which the tide flowed, and that when the tide was out they
gathered clams to cook or bake. Some of those boys must have been
near father's age. He was fourteen when they moved to Plainfleld. I
think mother went "down country" more than once before she had
many children, and she spoke of some things new to her, as of one of
father's brothers living on an island in Boston Bay, large enough to keep
many cows, and that they made cheese; that vessels coming in from the
ocean stopped there for water and always took all the milk and cheese,
no matter how green, and curd, even if 'twas ready for the press, because
they had been so long out on the ocean, and it was good for scurvy. I do
not think they stayed there many years, and must have left before Dolly
went down, as she never said anything about it. Sister Dolly went down
with father when I was six years old, and Harriet two. What small
things fix events in the memory— father left her down there and brother
Dura went after her in six or eight weeks. She had visited our cousins,
the Fennos, in Boston, three weeks, where there was two or three girls
very much liked. There she bought three dolls ; they were about ten
inches tall, trimmed beautifully. Harriet's was dressed in pink cambric,
while ours were of nice flowered muslin. She said Harriet was so small
she would tear hers to pieces soon. Her bringing those dolls, and say-
ing what she did, fixed in my mind everything she said, for I thought
she had been to Paradise. Well, she often talked of being in Quincy,
and about the place in the same way my mother did ; and again some
thirty-five years ago, when I was visiting her and mother in Ohio, we
138
talked one day about the Quincy relatives, and she spoke of their stylish
ways and the proud feeling of their mother.
After I was old enough to know more about it, father was unable to
go " down country" on account of heart troubles, but his memory was
always "green " about the home of his childhood, and he was often talk-
ing about his relatives, and from his talk, as well as Dolly's, we gathered
our ideas of them, so that I have no doubts about the Abner Torrey of
Quincy being my uncle.
I know that uncle Abner lived in Quincy himself, and his family was
there as long as our people kept any record of them or lived in Plainfield.
Different people were going to Abington or to Weymouth every year to
visit relatives left there, but those relatives seldom came to Plainfield,
or we should have kept more knowledge of them. Uncle Abner was in
the stone business, that is, had a stone quarry. After I was nine years
old, father was sick a long time and gave up practice, except with
friends, which kept him at home, and we children were more his com-
panions in conversations and books, and he would talk about his early
life, from which conversations I know that Quincy Abner was his brother,
as well as if I had seen him myself. Again, the matter was talked over
in the presence of brother Drury, about five years ago, and the fact of
the relationship acquiesced in by him.

The compiler of the "Thayer Family" genealogy is mistaken as to
the marriages of both Olive and Hozea Thayer. Both dates and names
are found in the town records of Plainfield, Mass. He gives their parent-
age as Nathaniel and Hannah (Penniman) Thayer, of Braintree, Mass.,
where the family had been settled from the first. The ancestry is
Nathaniel 6 , born 1750 ; Nathaniel 5 , born 1709 ; Nathaniel 4 , born 1680 ;
Nathaniel 3 , born 1658; Richard 2 , born in England; and Richard 1 ,
who came from England.

The earliest record of the Webster family, to which Julia, who mar-
ried Henry Torrey, belonged, is of Governor John Webster, of Con-
necticut, who by tradition came from Warwickshire, England, as did all
but one or two of his children. His wife was Agnes . He
was one of the first settlers of Hartford, Conn., was representative in
1637, magistrate 1639-1655, deputy governor in 1655, and the fifth gover-
nor of the colony 1656-7. Owing to religious disagreements he removed
with others and founded Hadley, Mass., in 1659, where he died April 5,
1661. His children named in his will were Matthew, William, Thomas,
Robert, Anne, Elizabeth, and Mary.
His son Robert remained in Connecticut, and settled at Middletown,
and at the organization of the town in 1651 or 1652, was chosen Recorder.
About 1660, he removed to Hartford. He married about 1652, Susannah,
daughter of Richard Treat. He was a lieutenant and saw service, was
a representative, received a grant of land, and died before 1677. The
names of ten children are recorded.
The third child of Robert Webster was Jonathan, born January

paragraphs 7-7, 7-64, 7-66, and others, is published in full in a book, the

APPENDIX.
ETYMOLOGY.
The origin of the name Torrey, like that of most other names, is not
a matter of record, but only one of inference. The name may be con-
sidered in the forms Torrey, Torry, Torri and Torre, to which several
modified forms of spelling are obviously related.
There are several linguistic roots of equal value, as hypothetical
sources from which the name Torrey may have been derived. As it is
written to-day it is composed of the root "tarr " and the suffix or termi-
nation "ey" (y as in busy), and was probably first applied as a sobriquet
or nickname to a family or group of persons. The suffix or ending ey
is in accordance with the genius of our language, and implies connection
with that which the simple root word designates. The name may have
been given to folks living on or among very prominent steep hills, or
natural towers, and so be affiliated to torrents, tor-heads (head-lands).
Again the exposure of such tower-hills or headlands to the fierce heat
of the sun, suggests the condition of baking or burning as in torrid, and
words derived from torrere to parch; and their exposure in storms when
the lightning may be seen flashing in their vicinity, suggests them as
the source of the name thunder, or of the God Thor; or the name might
have been given to persons or families who remained in the faith of the
god Thor at the time most people about them had been converted to Chris-
tianity. If we take into consideration the slip-shod pronunciation of
names by many people, who, from habit or from defects in their vocal
organs, effect changes of sound that require changes of letters in the spell-
ing of them when they may be written for record, we can better understand
the vague result which must follow attempts to trace family names back
to their beginning.
Most persons in England could neither read nor write during those
centuries when family names were adopted by most inhabitants of that
country. Considering the family name Torrey, the letters "rr" serve to
insure a pronunciation which many persons give to a single "r J '; the
"ey" for short i, is easily supplanted by " e," "y" or "&',"any one of
which may represent short i. The root word " torr, v or possibly " lor,"
is easily varied in pronunciation (and spelling) by changes in the sound
given the letter "o," as there used. The correct sound is that of o in
or; yet many persons sound a long o, as in tow, and again many sound
the o as a in tare.
We may easily get, judging from current perversions of the name
Torrey, such names as: Tarey or Tarry, Toreyor Tory, and with various
changes with the final e, i and y, and these present usages of the name
IV
Torrey should serve to caution the investigator against all forms of dog-
matic assurance of the derivation of it many centuries ago.
Old records give many names that may have been changed to Torrey,
as one of 1347, when Adam Tore was a member of Parliament from
Edinburgh, a name which, if spoken in two syllables, is clearly Torrey.
Webster's dictionary gives Tore, n. (probably from tear; Scot, tore,
W. tor, a break, cut; tori, to break, cut). The dead grass that remains
on mowing land in winter and spring. (Prov. Eng.)
The name Torre (with variations of spelling), is common with the
Portugese, Spanish, Italian and French people. It is a matter for inquiry
as to the origin of it in these languages. Was it due to the Northmen?
We have but to imagine an individual or family of Torreys isolated
from relations who would help maintain the correct pronunciation of the
family name, and placed within the influence of such mispronunciations
as indicated, to establish a modification of the name, and make a new
family name. So applying the supposition back to ascertain the begin-
ning of the name Torrey, we can easily comprehend that the root ton-
may have started in a perversion of tarr, or tar, fur, or turr, and in like
way possibly of ter, tir and tyr. Probably the t and r are the only certain
elements of sound which are necessarily in the original word.
The following words are given as indicating, in the writer's opin-
ion, the object from which, by some association of ideas, the name
Torrey was probably derived :
Torr, the Northmen's God of War, Thor.
Tor, a steep hill.
Turris, a tower.
Note. — {Tory, the designation of the adherents to the crown during
the American Revolution, is a word first used in English politics in 1679,
said to be an Irish word signifying a robber, savage, or from toree, to
give, as if your money.)
"Torr, Thunder and Donner, are probably different forms of the
name Thor, Son of Odin, and the most powerful of the Gods. * * *
Thor, is the Scandinavian pronunciation of the name." "These three
names then, Torr, Thunder and Donner, ma} r represent respectively the
Scandinavian Low German and Kigh German name of the God of
Thunder." "Thor by itself, does not seem to have been anciently com-
mon as a Scandinavian name. Finn Magnusen (Lex. Myth.) states that
though he could reckon up about sixty compound names, he knew no
instance of the simple form. The name Tor occurs several times in
Domesday Book, particularly in Yorkshire, where, both from the locality
and the pronunciation, it is more probably of Scandinavian origin.
There was a Thor surnamed the Long, an Anglo-Saxon or Northman of
some note about the time of the Conquest, whose seal is described in No.
53, of the Archaeological Journal." From " English Surnames and their
place in the Teutonic Family," by Root. Ferguson, Lon., 1858. 12 mo.,

WAR RECORDS.
Records of the American Revolution have been accumulating in the
archives at Washington for more than 100 years, and are now stored in
several rooms of the new state building in AVashington. They fill hun-
dreds of old boxes and barrels. They cover everything from a private's
pension affidavit to the dispatches of general officers. No effort has ever
been made to systematize them. To look for any one paper, or any series
of papers, would be as useless as searching for the proverbial needle in a
stack of hay. In these records lie the history of the nation's birth.
Their value to historians, antiquarians and genealogists is inestimable,
and yet, for all practical purposes, they might as well be at the bottom
of the Detroit River. Congress owes it to itself and to the people that
these papers should be properly indexed and preserved for future gener-
ations. It would take 200 clerks ten years to perform the work, but the
money paid for their services would not be misspent. — Detroit Journal.
The Archive Room in the State House in Boston contains a large
number of documents of varied character, relating to all kinds of events
connected with the history of the State of Massachusetts. Many of the
papers, like muster rolls, are arranged in bound volumes and indexed.
Others are in bundles and files, and cannot be examined without expend-
ing much time, and at much expense. There are nine volumes of mus-
ter rolls relating to the French and Indian Wars of the last century.
There are as many as probably 150 volumes relating to the Revolutionary
Vll
War, and a vast mass of papers in files and bundles, which ought to be
bo und in volumes and indexed. To do this will tax the State heavily,
and be yet more expensive if the most valuable of the collection is
printed, as it should be to avoid an irreparable loss from fire.
MILITARY SERVICE.
The circumstance that each of the four Torreys, brothers, who came
from England about 1640, received appointments to military positions
in the colonies, justifies the assumption that they, as a family, possessed
special fitness therefor, and it is probable that they had seen military
service in England. They were educated men. An affidavit by Philip
Torrey (7), speaks of himself as having been a yeoman.
Of the military service of either of the Jonathan Torreys, 1-15 and
2-4, nothing is known to the compiler. But Jonathan Torrey 3-1 saw
service in the French and Indian War of 1755 to 1763, and possibly it
was his son Jonathan jr. (4-4) who lost his life in the Louisburg expedition.
Of Abner Torrey (4-1) it appears that he was often in State or militia
service, in both wars. The influence of the community around him, in
Abington, may be judged by the statement that "Seventeen Abington
men were lost in the old French War, and in the Revolutionary War,
almost every man capable of bearing arms was in the service for a longer
or shorter period."
The compiler has had the Massachusetts records searched for refer-
ences to persons named Torrey, and prints the result received herein, not
as a complete statement, but as the best that can be done, readily, until
the records are arranged and rendered more accessible. It is printed
with the belief that it will be found particularly interesting to all mem-
bers of the Torrey family in the United States. The dates of the ser-
vice recorded indicate in each instance the war and the set of records
furnishing the information.

Note. — The references to persons named Torrey, found in the volumes of
" French and Indian War " and of the " Revolutionary War " records, Massachusetts
Archives, printed in the preceding 24 pages, do not exhaust this source of informa-
tion, as the papers there stowed in boxes and bundles are likely sources for much
valuable knowledge, which may be made accessible at a future day. It is thought
that persons of this family in America lived, up to the time of the Revolutionary
War, almost exclusively within the New England colonies, and that the archives of
those colonies should be searched for data in preparing its history. The compiler
invites to this subject the attention of such persons as are interested in recovering
it. The searches for what is herein given were made by George W. Brown, Esq., of
Newtonville, Mass., a gentleman with special knowledge and skill in the matter,
whose service is commended to any one wishing to have like searches made,
XXXIV
THE PLANTING OF NEW ENGLAND.
" When the Long Parliament met in 1640, the Puritan exodus to New
England came to an end. During the twenty years which had elapsed
since the voyage of the Mayflower the population had grown to 26,000
souls. Of this number scarcely 500 had arrived before 1629. It is a
striking fact, since it expressed a causal relation, and not a mere coinci-
dence, that the eleven years, 1629-1640, during which Charles I. gov-
erned England without a parliament, were the same eleven years that
witnessed the plaDting of New England. For more than a century after
this there was no considerable migration to this part of North America.
Puritan England now found employment for all its energies and all its
enthusiasm at home." — John Fiske.
These immigrants were selected material, gathered from all parts of
England — people with strong convictions and great energy of character,
and having enough property to allow of their migration to America.
For nearly one hundred and fifty years after the planting of the colonies
they received so few additions to their numbers from abroad that, by
their inter-breeding, they progressed far toward the establishment of
specially marked hereditary traits. To this is largely due the notable
influence which their descendants have had in the forming of new com-
munities throughout our vast territory, an influence much greater than
has been their proportion in the population.

INDEX.
Where possible, some date is given with each name in the index to enable
the searcher to identify the reference without examining the text. Usually
the years of birth and of death are given, with the word " date," if the person
was living at the time when their record was compiled. The great number of
names in the genealogical record makes an extended index unavoidable, and
furnishes a reason for not extending it still further, with many other matters,
which are at best but incidental to the purpose of the book.
The index references are, unless otherwise stated, to the family paragraph
in which the principal account of the person will be found. The abbreviations
used are a., about; b., born; ch., child; d., died; dau., daughter ; m., married;
s., son.
